If the WEP keys don't match, the laptop won't be able to access the network. Looks like Rick needs to brush up on his security protocols.

But wouldn't it be better to just not be able to access the network at all if the keys don't match?

I agree with Lili. If the WEP keys don't match, the security will be compromised.
